UK Banning Sex-Selection Abortions

Sex-selection abortions will soon be banned in Britain:


Health Minister Caroline Flint told MPs she was minded to introduce a "clear and specific ban" on the use of new techniques to choose one gender of baby.

Allowing parents to pick sex for reasons such as "balancing" the make-up of their family could be the start of a "slippery slope" to designer babies, she warned.

At least there's some limit to when an abortion can occur. Too bad James Joyner's tongue-in-cheek scenerio is all too realistic.
